A mountain goat is climbing to the top of a large cliff. The cliff is 50 feet higher than its starting point. If it takes the goat 22 minutes to climb this cliff, interpret the quotient to describe the rate of change in the goat's elevation. Give your answer to the nearest hundredth.

To find the rate of change in the goat's elevation, we need to divide the change in elevation by the time it took to climb. The change in elevation is 50 feet and the time it took to climb is 22 minutes. So the rate of change is 50 feet / 22 minutes = <<50/22=2.27>>2.27 feet/minute. Answer: \boxed{2.27}.

The answer is 2.27.
A bird is flying at an average altitude of 10 meters above the ground. After 3 seconds, it settles on a branch that is 3 meters above the ground. Interpret the quotient to describe the rate of change in the bird’s altitude. Give your answer to the nearest hundredth and remember that the bird is descending.(1 point)
